can I paint my fork tubes
If you check out my bike its pretty blacked out and chromed. Im pretty much done with the customization process other than wishing I could afford some rims that are not spokes and just powder coat them black.
I think there is too much chrome on my front end. I was thinking of leaving my triple trees chrome and possibly painting the tubes black? has anyone ever done this?
I see sportsters that come with stock front ends that are already black. I was wondering what I would need to do to get the same look without buying new tubes.

you can't paint them as the friction and the oil will soon destroy the paint. Powdercoating them wont work as when you get a chip in the powder it will leak
The only thing you can do is to get them re chromed in a black colour
For example
I have a question for you
How do you do the thumb nail image thing in your post?
